(SOURCE: Early Sample Harvest - August 2011)
This early sample harvest of BBK bud has been slowly curing in humidity controlled glass mason jars for exactly a year.
I figured that now is time to give this bud a serious look! Over the last 12 months, the color of the plant material has changed from a predominently blueish green, to a more lime green with hits of brilliant red interspirsed within the bud.
Here is what some of my BBK plants looked like while they were still alive in early September of 2011...
The 12 month cured bud...
Now on to the review...
When I first sampled this strain soon after harvest, I didn't personally care for it. The THC content was very high, and the buzz was a bit too racy to suit my tastes.
However... Fastforward a year hence, and we find a totally different effect/experience. Just as the buds themselves have morphed into a far more interesting color scheme, the medicinal effects have mellowed consierably!
Instead of the "Five Cups of Espresso" effect, the smoke is now much more mellow. True, there is still a bit of an energy rush right after a toke... The overall effect is much more sedate and smooth. The smoke through a bong is sweet a pleasant with hints of Lavender and Strawberries. No harshness to speak of! Just a very nice satisfying smoke!
I have to say that I misjudged this strain at first taste. If left to cure for a respectable period of time, this strain produces a very impressive result! The buds are sticky and moist to the touch, as though they had been dipped in honey! The color is inviting and the buzz is very enjoyable!
I give this grow of BBK and strong 5 stars!
